but instead obama is weak and obama is strong than pretty much anybody calculated and the obama campaign seems to be flat foot. they haven't captured the spirit and enthusiasm they had four years ago. they appear listless and are driven by events. they have had their share of mistakes and the polls feed the sentiment they are off track. politics bad gets worse. so they are going through a trough. i wouldn't trade places with obama if i were romney right now either. megyn: how did the president get to this point? is it a function of the economic numbers or is it a series of mistakes as rove and others are pointing out. >> i think the president got a big bump at the end of the republican primary process when you had reverend wright issues that came up. so now that that died down some -- you have got come -- the country is divide at 45-45. so this race is going to come down to where can you get the electoral votes to win. i think the president seems well tested. i'm not worried about that. there are factors in american politics that are beyond the president's campaign's control. that's what

obama runs this daily meeting. they released a photo of him taking the briefing on an ipad, and they promoted stories of him, how he runs this much better than his predecessor did, so i thought i'd dig into it a little bit. i worked with researchers from the government accountability institute, and we looked at the president's daily schedule from the day he took office until mid june of this year, and what we found is of the 1,225 days that he's been in office, he's attended the daily intelligence briefing, the meeting, only 536 times. that's 44% of the time. in the last two years, 2011 and the first half of 2012, that's dropped to 38% of the time. so he is not attending his daily intelligence meeting with senior intelligence officials on a daily basis. president bush, by contrast, held that meeting six days a week without fail during his administration. so this is something that when he came into office, the intelligence officials -- many of whom carried on from one administration to the next -- were shocked when
